Attention Travelers – Introducing My New Travel Discussion Forums

When I started this blog a few years ago, my primary goal was to pass along some of the travel related wisdom that I have picked up over my years of travel.  However, it was also to spark conversation about travel and learn some things from you, my fellow travel enthusiasts.  The comments, tips, feedback, and encouragement that I have gotten from you in the comments of my articles over the years have been spectacular.  Some of the great tips and feedback you have provided I have already factored into my own travel planning processes and even passed on some of the wisdom to others.

The city of Seville in Southern Spain is well-known to most travelers for its incredible beauty, but many travelers are unaware of the deep historical and cultural significance of this amazing town.  For instance, if you ask I am sure that most travelers wouldn’t know that Seville is the birthplace of Spanish Tapas, the final resting place of the famed explorer Christopher Columbus, and the location where many of Hollywood’s most infamous movies were filmed.  These are just some of the many reasons why the city of Seville continues to be one of Spain’s best kept secrets.

The Definitive Quito, Ecuador Visitor Guide

The Definitive Quito, Ecuador Visitor Guide

At 9,252 feet (or 2,820 meters) in elevation, the city of Quito, which is Ecuador’s capital city, is the highest capital city in the entire world.  Not only that, but the city of Quito was also one of the very first World Cultural Heritage Sites designated by UNESCO back in 1978.  The city’s beautiful historic center, with its cobblestone streets and beautiful 16th Century stone houses, is absolutely beautiful.  Touring this area of the city alone is worth a visit to Quito.  Not to be forgotten, Quito is the perfect city to fly into to launch a trip to another Ecuadorian treasure, and the world’s very first Cultural Heritage Site, the infamous Galápagos Islands.
